Nature's Cures explores 33 valuable and fascinating healing arts from many traditions including: massage, herbal remedies, biofeedback, and homeopathy, among other healing traditions. He describes both the natural and scientific reasons why these therapies work and how specifically they can work for you. Never preachy or condemning, Castleman shows what each healing modality is best for and how best to incorporate it into your life. The book contains a symptoms chart that explains which natural therapies are best at curing those symptoms. Throughout, Castleman maintains that eating properly, exercising, and keeping everything in moderation can lead to physical and emotional balance and long-term health.

Michael Castleman writes about health and sexuality. For thirty-five years, his journalism focused on health defined broadly, including optimal wellness, mainstream medicine, alternative therapies, nutrition, fitness, and sexuality. Castleman also writes mystery novels set in San Francisco.
This well-researched compendium by the author of The Healing Herbs provides an upbeat introduction to drug-free healing methods. Subjects, covered in separate chapters, include acupuncture, low-fat eating, sleep, weight training, cognitive therapy, vitamins and minerals, yoga and supplementary cancer therapies (in the chapter "Complementary Cancer Care"). Quoting liberally from leading researchers and/or healers in the respective areas, Castleman describes the therapies and suggests how-to steps for applying them. As is expected of Rodale's offerings, the prose is clear, straightforward and not marked by authorial personality. "Resources" is an annotated appendix listing information on books, magazines, newsletters, videos, products and national organizations pertaining to each topic. This is a well-reasoned guide for those in need of DIY advice and rational explanations of alternative, non-pharmaceutical therapies.
